“Proof Of Fire” A Whiskey Dinner Without Rules

Cost: $100

This isn’t about tasting whiskey on the side.

It’s about whiskey inside the story.

Course I — The Smoke Before the Sip

Whiskey-Cured Hamachi

Light cure using bourbon, citrus zest, shaved cucumber, sesame oil, chili threads

The evening starts cold and clean — but the fish is kissed with whiskey before it ever hits the plate. Subtle proof, bright acid, quiet heat.

Course II — Fire & Fat

Whiskey-Glazed Grilled Oysters

Charred over open flame, brushed with rye butter, lemon, herbs

Briny meets barrel. The glaze is reduced whiskey — concentrated, glossy, slightly sweet — caramelized by heat.

Course III — The Unexpected Middle

Whiskey-Infused Miso Risotto

Toasted mushrooms, black garlic, parmesan crisp

Whiskey folded directly into the base — not as a finish, but as part of the foundation. Deep umami, subtle warmth, no obvious sweetness.

Course IV — The Main Event (No Safety Net)

Wood-Fired Dry-Aged Ribeye

Whiskey-pepper crust, charred onion purée, smoked marrow jus

The crust is pressed with cracked pepper steeped in whiskey. The jus carries barrel reduction. This is bold and built for proof.

Course V — The Wild Finish

Whiskey Ice Cream Sandwich

Brown butter cookies, smoked vanilla ice cream, bourbon caramel drizzle

But here’s the twist — the ice cream is churned with a splash of whiskey, frozen to hold flavor, not overwhelm it. Sweet, cold, slightly rebellious.
